Selena POV:
“I noticed that I needed to concentrate on its energy more so than Earth,” I told him.
“Yes, and to even turn away for a moment can be dangerous,” he said. “I want you to become acquainted properly with Fire today, maybe even hold it. But nothing else.”
“Alright,” I said as I brought the lighter up into both of our lines of sight and flicked it on. A strong flame ignited immediately, casting a warm yellow glow.
“Now, find its essence and focus,” he whispered.
I did as he asked, first calming myself of all my nerves and worries. I looked into the heart of the flame. Within moments, I felt a connection. The flame started to dance happily in greeting, asking to bond with me.
“Yes, I would like that very much,” I whispered lovingly to it as if talking to a small child who was asking me to come to play with it.
I nervously raised my other hand slowly a
Selena POV:It had been a week since. Lessons with Argon and Meredith varied during that time. Some days, it involved circle casting and others involved working directly with the elements. I enjoyed my time spent with them. Meredith was my teacher and confidant in either new healing techniques or new plants, or even if I wanted to have a heart-to-heart conversation. Argon, on the other hand, was the harsher one. The questions I found were too personal and embarrassing to ask Meredith, I would ask him. I found myself asking him what a mating of witches was like. If he had known any half-breeds who had gone through it. I personally didn’t think it would happen to me, not to mention that I didn’t want to think about who my possible mate would be. But Argon was calm and explained with clinical precision. He had a mate back home whom he missed dearly. And though he rarely gave details about her, the wistful look in his eye told me that a part of the reason why
Selena POV:Duncan followed my words and shifted into his human form. I guess I should have thought it through before asking him to do that because then, Duncan was naked. It usually wasn’t a big issue for shifters, but it was for me.“I… um…” I mumbled, trying my best to shift my eyes away from him, but he didn’t make any attempt to hide his naked body from me. He stood before me in all his glory. His thick member stood at attention, making it difficult for me to look anywhere else. “You ran,” he stated. I blinked a few times before looking up at his face. “I had to get out of there. I couldn’t. I can’t. You can’t choose me. You have to pick someone else.”I heard the low growl in his chest. He had no intention of picking anyone else. “I don’t like being told what I can and cannot do, Selena. Just like you. I have no plan to pick anyone else. You are the

I followed blindly, allowing him to pull the shirt over my head. I was blinded for a second before he yanked the fabric off and threw it to the other side of the room. I gasped as the air hit my bare torso. His eyes roamed over my body for the fraction of a second. “Your wish is my command, Selena,” he whispers as his hands find their way to my skin. He slides his hand up my stomach, cupping my breaths and rolling my nipple between his fingers. I bit my lip, not sure if it was okay to make a sound. Embarrassment shot through my body, coloring my cheeks. “Thank you,” he said suddenly before whispering so low that I couldn’t make out his words. He pushed me back into the huge bed and settled down next to me. This… this felt natural. I was pulled

His tone was full of promise and caresses. I trembled as his hardness made contact with me, gliding through my wetness. Being tied down and my sight of him obstructed only amplified every single noise and sensation, and the feeling of his thick hardness hitting my sensitive clit. I positively gushed in excitement. I clenched at the silken sheets and held my jaw to keep from letting him hear my whine of need. “I…” I started, wondering exactly what it was. “I want something,” I groaned. “Hmm?” He hummed. I felt his finger skim over my hips.

Her bite had set me off. As much as I wanted to leave her alone, being hers officially meant that my nature took over. When the she-wolf who marked you goes into heat, you best believe the goddess makes you go into a rut. It’s the law of nature. And so it happened. By some supernatural force, I was still able to stop myself from marking her back. I couldn’t do that to her. “Shhh…. Shhh….”“Oh god… oh god…” she writhed as I sucked on her nipples, sensitive from my ministrations to her body, strung out from cumming too many times. “So good…&rdqu

For a moment, I couldn’t remember where I was, and it ached to move. I was naked, on the bed, in a room that reeked of sex. I must have passed out sometime last night. At some point, I remembered Duncan waking me up, and ‘one more’ had become three more. It seemed that I had urged him on every time. He made me drink something spicy, some sort of tea, to wake me up. It tasted awful and I couldn’t remember how I managed to keep it down. Time blurred, but I remembered the sensations sharpening after that. Looking around, I found him standing by the window. He was staring at the rain outside. He looked so pensive that I wondered what he was thinking about. My eyes traveled to his back and I saw prominent welts all along his spine, traveling down and disappearing under his sweatpants.
Selena POV:As quietly as possible, I opened the door to Meredith’s house and peeked into the living room. I didn’t see anyone around so I padded over to the kitchen to find something to eat. My stomach was growling from hunger. I stopped as I placed my hand on the counter and looked around just in case I had missed someone. I was looking through the supplies when I heard footsteps behind me. I jumped and turned back to find Meredith approaching casually. She looked at me and smiled. “Selena, you must be hungry.”I simply nodded my head, feeling embarrassed about the past few days. I found bread in the fridge and proceeded to make myself a toast, keeping my back to the house. I went to sit on the dining table and the sound of footsteps coming from behind me let me know that Meredith had followed me into the kitchen. “There is some food in the fridge. You should take some,” she offered. “Any jam o
Selena POV:The sound of footsteps arriving signaled that Argon was done with his morning routine. I watched as he came down the stairs and stopped at the foot when he saw me. “You’re up early today,” he commented to Meredith. Meredith chuckled. “Yeah, I got a call that Selena was headed home, so I woke up earlier than usual,” she admitted. I had not known the real reason why Meredith was awake and taking take of me, but I understood right then that Duncan had given her a heads-up. Argon snorted. “He is very nice,” he said. “Selena, Meredith and I made sure the forest was tended to. Don’t worry about it. It’s usually customary for the newly mated couple to have time together to get used to their new circumstances. But there is a lot going on in the witch world and yours… so we can’t give you a full week to recuperate,” he explained. “It’s fine. I
